Our favorite Hardy Boys novel.

Not your favorite. Our favorite.

We love this cover. For reader types, the back of the novel says this:

Mark Stevens is America's king of horror writers, but now someone is trying to knock him off the throne. He's invited two of his biggest fans, Frank and Joe Hardy, into his home -- Nightmare House -- to investigate a bizarre series of threats against his life. The strangest twist of all is that in finishing his new book, Stevens may have written his own obituary! 
 
Spoiler: Turns out, he didn't write his own obituary, after all.
